New wheels - F10 vs Hiro

I am looking at putting on some new 19's on my BS coupe - looking for rims that fit great (with correct offsets), are a dark finish, and are affordable - I have kinda narrowed down my search to two wheels:

1) Axis Hiro - 5 spoke - gunmetal center w/ polished lip - decent weight - ~$1300 for set of 19x8.5 +15, 19x9.5 +20

2) RH Evolution F10 - 10 spokes - all one finish (graphite), no lip - ~$1400 for set of 19x8.5 +25, 19x10 +25

So what is your opinion? Photoshops are greatly appreciated!!!

Hiro definitely looks a lot better. I'm thinking about getting them too.

Re: New wheels - F10 vs Hiro

I'm seriously considering the Axis Hiros as well. However, I'm concerned that the 8.5" width (with 245/45/18 tires), it could be a problem on a lowered car.

We'll see as Axis SLOWLY reveals more information. (Tip: the My350Z.com board is constantly talking about this wheel, so you may want to look there for the latest information).

Re: New wheels - F10 vs Hiro

the axis hiro's look a lot like the axis milano's -- minus the rivets and each spoke being a little bigger on the milano's. but either way, they look better than the rh evo's -- look like wagon wheels to me.

Re: New wheels - F10 vs Hiro

The only reason I considered the F10's were because I saw the graphite ones on a fully-done silver NSX and that car was the [censored]... but the G definitely needs something with a lip (and I really like the GT-C effect w/ the rear spokes caved inward) - I guess I just made my decision....
